by M. Hoffman
Crickets’ voices pulsing,
I
Alone, thrillingly,
Silhouettes of branches like fingers fading,
Darkness seeping through,
Trunk
Shooting up
Against my back,
Leaning on me as
I lean on it.
Deep, exotic awareness--
Warm soup washing
My
Throat, softly,
Air in breath like beats beginning,
Damp hair curling up,
Dirt
Sifting
Beneath my toes,
Creeping up my legs, as
I stay still.
…To know, this is happening everywhere.
